This place is magic! I didn't feel like I was staying at a hotel or in a city, I felt like I was staying at a resort. This was the most relaxed I felt on my multi-city Asian business trip. It was peaceful and tranquil - I had the whole place to myself. I swam in the pool every morning and sat outside at night. You could never replicate this experience in an impersonal hotel. It was rainy season when I was there but there was very little rain. Great place, great value, great people and a unique experience. I can't wait to stay there again!
